Real Zaragoza have reached the last 16 of the Copa del Rey thanks to an away-goals victory over Granada.

Zaragoza headed into Wednesday's match at the Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes with a 1-0 lead from the first leg, and a 2-1 defeat on the night was enough to see them progress in the competition.

Odion Jude Ighalo gave the hosts a first-half advantage, but Jose Mari converted just before the hour to give Zaragoza a vital away goal.

The away team's task was made harder soon after when Helder Postiga was sent off for a second bookable offence.

Diego Mainz headed Granada back in front with 66 minutes on the clock, but they were unable to grab a decisive third goal.
